Dear Cyrille Regis, I’m writing to you now because your untimely death means that there are things I didn’t get the chance to say to you and because I want you to know the extent of how positive your influence has been on my life and that of my family.
Every Saturday was Womens Sterling Shepard Jersey by the far the most exciting, memorable day I recall as a young boy growing up with my dad, Leroy, being a professional footballer. My happiest memories as a child were waking up in our flat in Streatham, south London, putting on my West Ham shirt with my brother Daron (more often than not before we brushed our teeth) and sitting in awe with Dad as he ate his pre-match fry-up in preparation for his big game at Upton Park in the late 80s.
We would then make the hour-long drive across London together as a family and as his sons we had the luxury of not only watching our dad play against the biggest teams in the country, we also had the opportunity to be in the dressing room warming up with household names such as Liam Brady, Paul Ince and Julian Dicks 20 minutes before kick-off.
Those are memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life and they inspired me to become a professional footballer, but without your poise, class, bravery, skill and desire to break down barriers and play the game you love under immense pressure and scrutiny I doubt I would ever have had these precious times.
You see, even though you were only six years older than him you were my dad’s hero. You were the man he based his game on – watching not only your world&#8209;class, http://www.newyorkislandersofficial...om/Adidas-Christopher-Gibson-Jersey outstanding, centre-forward play and goals for West Brom as a teenager – but also the elegance, determination and drive to perform at the incredible level that you did in the face of cruel, inhumane abuse directed at you for the perceived “crime” of the colour of your skin.
My father Geoff Swaim Youth jersey admits that the pain of vile racism in football had caused him to question his career choice but he had you as a reference point and an example and that helped convince him that you could be a successful, black footballer in the racially stereotyped climate of the 1970s and 80s in our country. If it wasn’t for you he may never have found the confidence, fortitude and self-belief to make a career in the game he loved so much and in turn, those lifelong memories and experiences that I gained as a young boy through my dad wouldn’t have happened so I too may never have enjoyed my own football career without your influence.
With the racial prejudice that you and other players had to put up with and in turn break down I may never http://www.officialauthenticbearsto...e.com/Nike-Bobby-Massie-Jersey.html have had the luxury of lacing my boots up at 3pm every Saturday with thoughts of dealing with racism from the terraces or opponents the furthest thing from my mind. If it wasn’t for you pushing forward with fearlessness and pride through the time you http://www.authenticcincinnatiredsshop.com/Joe-Morgan-Jersey received a bullet in the post Charles Barkley Authentic Jersey after being selected to represent England, put up with chants of “nigger lick my boots” or bananas routinely being thrown on the pitch with the dignity that you did, the multicultural game that we now take for granted would have taken even longer to come about.
Your immense presence and ability also forced our society to look in the mirror and challenge itself to be better and this is why I am compelled to write this letter to you out of respect, gratitude and honour for the true icon and pioneer of our game. Your goals gave millions of football supporters joy, but your kind-hearted, strong and courageous character gave the generation beneath you (including me) the belief to push forward and follow their dreams without the overt, sickening racism that you and other players had to contend with during your playing career.
The best way that we as the younger generation can honour your legacy is to use the benefits that your struggle has afforded us and move this game and our society further forward. We have a duty to you to uphold your example of skill, humility, passion and respect for future generations to learn that no matter your race, gender, faith or creed, we all have a positive role to play in our society.
We have a duty to you to follow your message Womens Starling Marte Jersey that the best way to beat the bigots is to be ourselves, strive to be outstanding at what we do and smile while doing it. That’s exactly what you did. cheap nfl jerseys from chinanike nfl jerseys size chartnike nfl jerseys wholesalewholesale mlb jerseyscheap nfl jerseys paypalcheap nfl jerseys chinacheap jerseys wholesale

One game – or, more accurately, one half&#8209;game – dominates the memory of Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s time at Manchester United. In the league derby at Old Trafford last season, the first meeting in England of José Mourinho and Pep Guardiola, the Armenian looked lost. He was partly responsible for the opening goal because of the way he initially did not press Pablo Zabaleta and then finally went far too late, and he was withdrawn at half-time. He did not play for two months after that.
That seems to have contributed to a general sense that Mkhitaryan was somehow lightweight, unsuited to the defensive demands Mourinho makes of his players. It is true that Mkhitaryan is not as robust as many in this United squad, which is, after all, the tallest of any team in Europe’s five major leagues. It is also true that, although he had occasional flurries of good form, most notably in the Europa League towards the end of last season, there were far too many games in which he wandered about uninvolved, looking dispirited and vaguely confused.
The accusation was that Mkhitaryan was flaky, not quite up to it. Given the struggles of Shinji Kagawa and Nuri Sahin to impose themselves on the Premier League, was there something about Borussia Dortmund that meant their alumni were unsuited to English football?
There is, of http://www.officialravensproshoponline.com/Albert-Mcclellan-Jersey course, always an issue when a player leaves an environment as idiosyncratic as Dortmund was under Jürgen Klopp, but the idea that Mkhitaryan did not fancy the defensive side of the game makes little sense given the success he had both Mitchell Stephens Youth jersey with Dortmund and Shakhtar, teams whose style was rooted in hard pressing, in which there is no place for shirkers. In his three seasons in the Bundesliga, Mkhitaryan regained possession through tackles and interceptions 2.7 times per game, 3.2 times per game and 3.2 times per game.
The Ukrainian league perhaps would not offer a fair comparison, even if the data were readily available, but in three Champions League campaigns at Shakhtar, albeit that being a small sample size, he regained possession 4.0, 6.1 and 4.4 times per game. And yet, at United, http://www.authenticgrizzliestore.com/Bryant_Reeves_Jersey he regained possession just 1.9 times per league game last season and just 1.5 this. That suggests the issue is not an inherent failing, but perhaps to do with how he was used.
United under Mourinho do not press in anything like the consistent or concerted way that Dortmund and Shakhtar did. Only occasionally – as for spells in the Europa League final last season, when Mkhitaryan was excellent – do they play with a high line. Often Mkhitaryan found himself having to provide the creative link between a deep-lying rearguard and holding midfield and a distant striker. It was then that he seemed uncomfortable.
Arsenal probably do have a policy on pressing, although it has not been readily discernible for some time. Given Arsène Wenger’s obsession with Adolphus Washington Jersey the Ajax team of the early 70s, Arsenal’s glut of technical players and their lack of players with traditional defensive qualities, they should be a high-tempo, high-line side. But there have been times recently when they have been almost as lax in that regard as they are with extending players’ contracts. But their best recent performances – in the http://www.authenticnikeredskinshop...ncer-long-jersey-for-sale-c-35.html FA Cup semi&#8209;final and final last season, at home against Tottenham this season – have been based on an energetic press and Mkhitaryan should fit comfortably into that.
Precisely where he fits in a formation is a little trickier to say. Arsenal this season have used 3&#8209;4&#8209;2&#8209;1 and 4-2-3-1. On Saturday, in the 4-1 win against Crystal Palace, it was 4-3-3. Although Mkhitaryan can play wide – in the Europa League final, for instance, he started on the left of a 4-3-3 – the general perception is he is more comfortable through the middle, which could potentially create problems if Mesut Özil were to agree a new contract and stay.
Could you play Mkhitaryan and Özil together? Potentially, in a 3-4-2-1. With one of them wide, though, there may be a lack of dynamism on the flanks. Certainly with Mkhitaryan and Özil in tandem, there should be no lack of supply to a central striker (albeit there is a danger that an approach based on through-balls falters against a deep-lying opponent). It is a measure of how detached Mkhitaryan often seemed at United that, having registered 15 assists in his final campaign in the Bundesliga, he set up only six goals in his season and Womens Reggie Ragland Jersey a half at Old Trafford, five of them in the first three games of this season.Henrikh Mkhitaryan nike nfl jerseyswholesale jerseysmlb jerseys cheapcheap jerseys 90mlb jerseys usanfl jerseys cheap

Sam Allardyce has admitted that Wayne Rooney and http://www.nflbengalsofficial.com/Authentic-Vincent-Rey-Jersey Gylfi Sigurdsson cannot both be accommodated in his Everton team because of their lack of pace, raising the prospect that one of the club’s high-profile summer signings will be forced to play a supporting role over the rest of the season.
Rooney was dropped to the bench for the 1-1 draw against West Brom on Saturday, with Sigurdsson moving from the left flank into the No 10 position. In fact Everton toiled despite the change, livening up only briefly when Rooney emerged to play a big part in Oumar Niasse’s undeserved equaliser, but Allardyce says it is hard to envisage a future where both players would start.
“Last week I said we have not got a lot of legs in the team and we need to be quicker,” Allardyce said. “We’ve increased that with Theo [Walcott] and Yannick [Bolasie] when he gets back to full fitness but in midfield you have to be able to cover the ground. I think Rooney and Gylfi playing together are very shrewd, very clever and talented players but in actual terms of covering the ground it is difficult – it’s not their strength.
“So I have to make a big decision on who plays this one and who plays for next one. For me, Gylfi has been trudging away outside on the left side, so play him in the position he wants to play and see what he can do.
“As a team we are light in legs, in pace. And that is something I have Sean Harlow Jersey to cope with until the end of this season and we look at the whole squad and say: ‘What do we do to make it better?’”
Allardyce’s comments can be read, directly or not, as an indictment on a summer transfer policy that led to Everton lavishing a record transfer spend under Ronald Koeman, who preceded Allardyce at Goodison Park. Sigurdsson’s arrival from Swansea Josh Jones Jersey cost £40m and the return of Rooney from Manchester United, while on a free transfer, entailed wages of around £150,000 a week. Rooney has had the better season of the pair, scoring 10 goals, although Sigurdsson’s form has picked up under Allardyce and the Iceland international is, at 28, four years younger than his team-mate.
Everton’s poor planning is returning to haunt them and Allardyce, who oversaw a marked improvement in the weeks after his arrival in November, is now deeply concerned about a return of old habits. They remain seven points clear of the relegation zone but the turgid performance against West Brom, added to an abysmal display at Tottenham a week previously, has spooked their manager.
Asked whether he was concerned about slipping back towards the dogfight at the bottom, Allardyce said: “Yes, very, especially after performing like that, and last week’s second-half performance. I’ve seen a huge drain of confidence in the players over the space of one and a half football matches.
“The quality http://www.officialauthenticsteeler...p.com/WOMENS-SEAN-DAVIS-JERSEY.html of the Tottenham side, I could accept that, but West Brom are in the bottom three. If anyone should be suffering from nerves it should be them rather than us.”
An even bigger disappointment was the double leg fracture sustained by James McCarthy in denying Salomón Rondón. It happened “in his brave efforts to stop West Brom scoring”, as Allardyce put it; the injury looked ghastly and, although no timescale for McCarthy’s recovery has been laid out, he will surely miss the rest of the season.

Lazio won at San Siro on Sunday. An impressive feat at any time but all the more so on this occasion because they weren’t playing there. It was their neighbours, Roma, who had travelled to face Inter but a 1-1 draw between those teams was as good as a victory for the http://www.officialnhlhockeyonline....CHICAGO_BLACKHAWKS-c-1087_1095.html Biancocelesti, who took advantage of dropped points to climb into joint third.
They had done their part by thrashing Chievo 5-1 in the afternoon. So much for the theory that the winter break might cost Lazio momentum. This was the fourth time in 20 games they had hit five or more goals in a match – including a 5-2 win over Spal immediately before Serie A’s one-weekend pause.
Remarkable stuff, especially when you consider they lost Serie A’s leading scorer to injury on Sunday Martin Maldonado Jersey after only 35 minutes. Ciro Immobile should have exited much sooner – tweaking his thigh soon after kick-off and making little impact on the game thereafter. Instead it was Luis Alberto who opened the scoring with a deflected effort, and then Sergej Milinkovic-Savic who restored Lazio’s advantage after Manuel Pucciarelli had equalised in between. The Serbian added an elegant volleyed finish midway through the second half before Bastos and Nani completed the rout of Chievo.
You could argue the final http://www.officialtimberwolvesshop...entic-8-nemanja-bjelica-jersey.html scoreline was misleading. Chievo were competitive for long stretches and things might have gone differently if the penalty they were awarded with the score 2-1 had not been overturned on a VAR review. Yet there is something compelling about the way this Lazio side finishes games – refusing to let up even after an opponent’s will has been broken.
Their 53 goals are the most of any team in Serie A, despite the fact they have a game in hand on the majority. They have got there by a different route to the other frontrunners, too, eschewing possession in favour of fast breaks and faster finishing: a ruthlessly efficient brand of counterattacking football devised by manager, Simone Inzaghi.
It’s a system that exploits the http://www.officialauthenticknights...didas-Authentic-Colin-Miller-Jersey talent at his disposal. Immobile divides opinion, a centre-forward who lacks the all-around game of the world’s best at his position and who struggled badly when called upon to become a more complete player at Dortmund and Sevilla. Yet his instincts and timing around the 18-yard box are exceptional. Limit his role to what he does well, and he can John Hannah Jersey be very effective indeed.
Likewise, Milinkovic-Savic and Luis Alberto have flourished in roles behind the attack, empowered to carry the ball forward and assault spaces that open up when an opponent overcommits. With Immobile running on ahead of them, defenders are routinely confronted with the stark choice of backing off and inviting one of those two to take a shot on themselves, or risking the ball in behind.
Inzaghi has, in short order, emerged as one of the most promising young managers on the peninsula – a fact that Clay Buchholz Jersey only looks more impressive when you consider he is going against current tactical trends. Not bad for a man who was initially only intended as a caretaker appointment in the spring of 2016 and who got the job full-time only because Marcelo Bielsa changed his mind about taking it in the summer.
Perhaps Lazio could have avoided that whole saga if they had listened to the players. “As soon as [Inzaghi] arrived, he just brought this positive energy that made us feel right,” Milinkovic-Savic said during a June interview with Serbian media. “He created this atmosphere in which everyone trusts their team-mates. There are no cliques – where I might, say, only speak to [compatriots] Dusan Basta or Filip Djordjevic.”
To focus solely on the manager, though, feels reductive. Lazio owe their success also to the recruitment strategy that brought in such players as Milinkovic-Savic – these days a reported €100m target for Europe’s wealthiest clubs – for barely a tenth of that sum in 2015. wholesale nfl jerseysnfl jerseys chinanike nfl jerseys size chartnhl jerseys chinacheap hockey jerseysnfl jerseys outlet

Since Alexis Sánchez’s transfer to Manchester United was confirmed on Monday evening there has not been a single tweet from one of his former Arsenal team-mates to wish him well or say what a pleasure it was to play alongside him. These guys and this club are not noted for their reticence on the social media platform. Sometimes, it is what is left unsaid that Authentic Ryan Grant Jersey makes the point.
Arsène Wenger went the other way. The manager had something to get off his chest on Tuesday morning and he dived right in. Arsenal are one game from the Carabao Cup final – they entertain Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium in the semi-final, second-leg on Wednesday night, with the scoreline locked at 0-0 from the first leg – and Wenger was asked whether victory and a Wembley appearance would lift the mood at the club.
“To change the mood?” Wenger said. ‘I have no illusions at all. The mood is decided by you [the press]. Look, we have been in a few finals. Has it changed your mood? No. You celebrate some teams who have not been in a final for 25 years and yet you kill us, even though we have won the FA Cup three times in the last four years. It’s like that. We have to live with that.”
Tottenham Hotspur’s last appearance in an FA Cup final was 1991 and there is http://www.officialnikejetshop.com/...cy-enunwa-jersey-for-sale-c-42.html the sense in some quarters at Arsenal that the British press have anointed them as their darlings – despite http://www.authenticbluejacketsstor.../-71-nick-foligno-jersey_c-448.html their lack of silverware. Similarly, they feel that Liverpool, who have struggled for trophies in the past decade or so, have been feted more than criticised.
It is into this climate – one characterised by the mentality of the siege and where meltdowns bubble around every corner – that Arsenal welcome Henrikh Mkhitaryan. The Armenian, who joined from United in a straight swap for Sánchez, is cup-tied against Chelsea and must wait until next Tuesday to make his Arsenal debut – at Swansea City in the Premier League. The pressure will be on him to provide positivity from the off.
If things had worked out differently, Mkhitaryan would have become an Arsenal player in the summer of 2016. “I met him and we were close at the time but, in the end, it didn’t work,” Wenger said. The attacking midfielder would leave Borussia Dortmund for United; Wenger has said many times that Arsenal cannot compete for players – on a financial level – with either Manchester club.
Mkhitaryan struggled under José Mourinho at Old Trafford and Wenger said C.J. Anderson Authentic Jersey that the challenge for him would be to put the psychological scars behind him – in the same way that Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah and Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne have done. Both of them struggled under Mourinho at Chelsea.
“You worry about how much it has affected him but it’s a new chance for him and that’s what you want in life,” Wenger said. “With his quality, I’m sure that he will take it. I might have to analyse with him how it went [at United], what we can do, how can we help him?”
It is clear that Mkhitaryan is no like-for-like Sanchez replacement and Wenger raised the prospect of him filling the midfield boots of the long-term injury victim Santi Cazorla. “Personally, I see him first wide but I’m thinking as well that there is the possibility for him to play through the middle, Wenger said. “As a No10? Or even deeper.”

When Uefa first began seriously discussing the prospect of a brand new international competition, back in 2011, their intentions were honourable enough. The lustre of national team football had faded steadily over the previous decade, largely due to the club game’s suffocating spread but also to the contemporary nature of the beast.
Friendly matches, seen by managers as valuable testing grounds but by the Jussi Jokinen Youth jersey public and – in some cases – players as halfhearted trudges, had become little more than ballast in the calendar; qualifying for major tournaments had, for the leading lights, generally become a procession. If the latter owed partly to the geopolitical changes within Europe since 1989 and a slew of successor states whose football infrastructure lagged behind the rest, it merely emphasised that a little agility was long overdue.
The fruits of that shapeshifting will be displayed on Wednesday when, in front of a suitably curious assembly in Lausanne, the inaugural Uefa Nations League draw takes place. It has, to a large extent, flown under the radar so far but from September onwards it will be stitched into the sport’s fabric and replace the majority of friendly games. Uefa’s four-tier brainchild will rattle through six international dates by the end of November, completing a group stage that funnels into a four-team finals competition the following June.
So far, so uncomplicated. There is, certainly for those who still hold international football in high esteem, an innate pleasure in the idea of countries competing in league form, effectively working their way up or down from Leagues A to D in a relatable format. A summer mini-tournament between, say, Germany, Belgium, France and Spain to decide the overall champion has appeal; there is also an element of interest in seeing just where the dust settles for aspirational smaller countries, who will play competitive matches against teams of similar weight. For Kosovo, Moldova, Kazakhstan and Liechtenstein it offers scope to hone a winning mentality where none previously existed.
Yet, even allowing for the fact that any tournament looks infinitely more appealing when there are fixtures to discuss, the lack of buzz has been glaring. If Uefa were looking to create a crowdpleaser, an event that had the dual benefits of helping football development while catching the wider imagination, the fear is that things have moved on at such a rate – even in the last seven years – that the Nations League resembles a dead weight. The clubs’ hold over most casual fans is almost total, in large part due to the unstinting efforts of news outlets, financial backers and social media accounts to make it so. Anything new needs to grab the modern attention span: while other sports – cricket an obvious example – tinker with tweaked formats to do exactly that, the convoluted nature of Uefa’s offering looks decidedly out of step.
A competition that will initially be contested across 16 groups – four in most http://www.texansofficialauthentic.com/TEXANS-GREG-MANCZ-JERSEY leagues, their sizes flitting between four and a patently unfair set of threes – already seems plenty to stay across but the most disappointing element reveals itself at the very end. In March 2020, nine months after the first Womens Tedric Thompson Jersey Nations League has finished, the top four ranked teams in each league that have not already qualified for that summer’s European Championship – via that tournament’s own qualifying series – will be offered http://www.officialsramsprostore.com/Josh_Reynolds_Jersey_Cheap another bite of the cherry. They will enter a play-off round between themselves, with one spot guaranteed for each league.
This means that, unless Latvia are the eventual beneficiaries from League D, there will be at least one debutant at Euro 2020. But the concept could hardly be more http://www.officialcowboysfootballa...c.com/COWBOYS-ROGER-STAUBACH-JERSEY absurd, particularly when Authentic Miles Plumlee Jersey Uefa have already given ample hope to potential first-timers by expanding their flagship competition to 24 teams. It smacks of an inducement to push their new event through, in the process lessening their own brainchild’s credibility and confirming its Europa League-ification. Scotland were among the occasional European Championship qualifiers to back the idea of a consolation place during early discussions about the Nations League, seeing it as a more compelling plus point than the near-abolition of friendlies and, unsurprisingly, they were far from alone. Perhaps Uefa deemed it a measure that would lasso its disparate members into the new format; soon enough the audience figures will show whether it was worth the added head-scratching.

The Football Association, as we know, is keen to learn from its mistakes. One of the major criticisms during the Mark Sampson farrago was that it did not undertake due diligence before hiring. You cannot accuse the governing body of such a lack of curiosity this time.
A thorough reconnaissance mission was undertaken before appointing Phil Neville as Sampson’s successor, apparently extending to scrolling several years back through his tweets. A series of ill-judged attempts at humour emerge. During one exchange with his sister, Tracey, Neville remarks: “u women of always wanted equality until it comes to paying the bills #hypocrites.” Another time he suggests women should be busy in the kitchen and getting the kids ready in the morning. In 2011 Neville tweets: “Relax I’m back chilled – just battered the wife!!! Feel better now!”
Senior FA executives were aware of some, but apparently not all, of his tweets. They decided he was the best person to lead the women’s national team anyway. An original shortlist of candidates, male Greg Mancz Womens Jersey and female, many of whom had proven experience in the women’s game, had been decimated. Laura Harvey, a former Arsenal Ladies manager, opted to take a job with Utah Royals, while John Herdman, an Englishman managing the Canada women’s team, was appointed coach of their men’s side. Mo Marley, who had taken interim charge after Sampson’s demise, removed herself from the running.
Perhaps the FA should have asked how and why a job leading the third-best team in the world ,with youth teams endowed with talent and offering a £120,000-a-year salary became so unattractive. It opted for a man whose only experience of management is in backroom roles at Manchester United during David Moyes’s disastrous reign and at Valencia under his brother, Gary. Also caretaker manager at Salford for one http://www.dolphinsshopnflonline.com/Jermon-Bushrod-Jersey game, he was apparently suggested to the FA lightheartedly by a broadcaster during Christmas drinks.
Once the FA had http://www.officialbluejaystore.com...authentic-17-ryan-goins-jersey.html its man, a sensible move might have Womens Emmanuel Lamur Jersey been to come clean about the tweets and explain that it did not believe they reflect Neville’s views or impair his ability to do the job. Instead it was left to charities and pressure groups to react. When Women’s Aid feels compelled to make a statement 24 hours after the appointment of your national manager something has usually gone amiss.
For all those dismissing Neville’s tweets as harmless banter, the country’s leading domestic violence charity has a different – almost certainly better informed – take. Sian Hawkins, campaigns and public affairs manager at Women’s Aid, said: “This ‘banter’, when left unchallenged, can reaffirm outdated but still worryingly prevalent attitudes of men’s superiority over women. At the sharp end of that is domestic abuse. With an average of two women a week being killed by their partner or ex-partner in England and Wales, this isn’t http://www.authentictexasrangersshop.com/Joey-Gallo-Jersey just unfunny, it is extremely dangerous.”
By most, if not all, accounts Neville is not a sexist. He is hugely supportive of the careers of his sister, a former netball player and now England‘s national netball coach, and his wife Julie, a health food author. Former players and prominent figures within the game were privately saying on Wednesday they have nothing against him and can forgive a series of tweets sent years ago and for which he has apologised. Many wish Authentic New York Rangers Jersey him well in a role in which he could yet succeed.
But for the FA his appointment has been another unmitigated disaster. After the controversy around Sampson, sacked after the detail Derek Newton Womens Jersey of “inappropriate and unacceptable” behaviour (understood to involve relationships with female players) in a previous role became known, it must have been desperate to avoid further damaging public debate. But once again it is unlikely to go away any time soon. cheap nfl jerseys usabaseball jerseys for salecheap jerseys 90hockey jerseysnba jerseys wholesalewholesale jerseys usacheap nfl jerseys nike

Gareth Southgate has welcomed Jack Wilshere’s return to form and fitness at Arsenal and offered the midfielder hope of regaining a place in the national side before the World Cup.
Wilshere, whose progress over recent seasons has been blighted by a series of ankle injuries, spent last season on loan at Bournemouth but, having entered the final year of his contract, he has established himself as a regular at Arsenal since the start of last month. His impressive form http://www.officiallakersshoponline.com/Brandon_Ingram_Jersey has been noted by Southgate and will earn the 26-year-old a new long-term deal at the Emirates Stadium, with talks continuing over an extension.
“It’s a real plus to see him playing as well as he is and playing regularly,” said Southgate, who http://www.authenticblackhawksite.c.../-81-marian-hossa-jersey_c-517.html saw England selected in a three-team group with Spain and Croatia in Wednesday’s Uefa Nations League draw in Lausanne.
“He is a player whose quality nobody has ever questioned. He had a really bad injury that he had to get over at Bournemouth last year. It’s no surprise that took some time but he looks sharp and looks fit and is playing regularly, midweek games as well. That’s great because we want our Authentic Lee Roy Selmon Jersey best players to be available and in good form.”
Wilshere, whose 34th and most recent cap was gained in the ignominious exit from Euro 2016 against Iceland, will face stiff competition to regain a place in England’s midfield but will hope a prolonged spell in the Arsenal side pushes his credentials.
England face “high-quality” fixtures, according to Southgate, against Spain and Croatia in the autumn having been drawn in Group Four of League A as Uefa starts its Nations League, which will feature promotion and relegation and will replace the majority of friendlies.
Wales, under the stewardship of Ryan Giggs, will face the Republic of Ireland and Denmark in Group Four of League B. Northern Ireland, whose manager, Michael O’Neill, has agreed a new contract to 2024, will play Austria and Bosnia-Herzegovina in Group Three of League B. Scotland, whose pursuit of a successor to Gordon Strachan continues, will play in League C in a group with Albania and Israel.
Uefa’s new competition is designed to allow teams to play against those similarly ranked and will offer some nations who fail to qualify for Euro 2020 via the normal route a path into the play-offs.
“The whole concept of this tournament is that you play high-quality and competitive matches, so that criterion is fulfilled with the group we’re in,” Southgate said. “We haven’t played Croatia for a little while so we’re looking forward to that and, of course, Spain, one of the best teams in the world.
“It’s good to test ourselves in these games and we like the concept of fewer friendlies and the concept of games against high-level teams. I think that’s really important. We saw in November in matches against Brazil and Germany, the enthusiasm of the players, the supporters and everybody was a different level and Joaquin Benoit Youth jersey that’s what we have to recreate to make international football meaningful.” wholesale nfl jerseys nikecheap jerseys wholesalenike nfl jerseys chinanfl jerseys nike

Shortly after 6pm CET on Tuesday Anderlecht were charged with infringing Article 19 (3) of Uefa’s safety and security regulations. Not the sexiest intro, admittedly, but the charge against the Belgian champions offers hope for fans being fleeced at European away games year after year. Anger, however, remains the prevailing mood over a ticketing system open to abuse.
Uefa opened proceedings against Anderlecht after the club charged Bayern Munich supporters €100 to attend a Champions League group game in November. Many Bayern fans boycotted despite tickets eventually being reduced to €70 thanks to subsidies from their own club. As at Arsenal two years earlier, when Bayern’s away support was charged €100 to watch a group game, it was time to make a stand.
Their outrage at Dale Hawerchuk Jersey a club cashing in on a rival’s mass following, and at Uefa appearing to ignore their http://www.football49ersofficialonl...ENS_YOUTH_GARRETT_CELEK_JERSEY.html concerns, was well-founded. European football’s governing body took disciplinary action only against Bayern initially, fining the club €20,000 after their supporters tossed fake money on to the pitch (throwing of objects, according to the charge) and displayed an “illicit banner” – again, according to Uefa’s control, ethics and disciplinary body – that read: “Is your gr€€d now finally satisfi€d?” A legitimate question with a costly answer.
The announcement this week that Wesley Johnson Womens Jersey Uefa will investigate the source of the problem at Anderlecht is a welcome step, albeit one that follows intense pressure and a continuing campaign against European ticket prices by the Bayern supporters’ group Club Nr 12.
It was Club Nr 12 that first accused Anderlecht of breaching Article 19 (3), which states: “Unless the associations or clubs concerned agree otherwise, the price of tickets for supporters of the visiting team must not exceed the price paid for tickets of a comparable category that are sold to supporters of the home team.” Supporters of the Belgian club had, Club Nr 12 pointed out, been able to buy group stage tickets only as a package. The total cost to Anderlecht fans for home games against Bayern, Celtic and Paris Saint-Germain was €141.
Uefa’s decision to charge Anderlecht is timely. The rule to prevent clubs over-charging away fans may be well-intentioned but its loopholes are being exposed with increasing regularity. Complaints are rising with prices.
Liverpool this week confirmed they had complained to Uefa and Porto over the Portuguese club charging away fans three times as much as their members to watch next month’s Champions League tie. Manchester United fans are having to pay €101 to attend their last-16 first leg at Sevilla. That is €40 more than Liverpool fans paid there in the group stage, so United have charged Sevilla fans an extra £35 at Old Trafford and are using the money to subsidise away tickets http://www.saintsofficialonlineshop...m/SUPER-BOWL-GARRETT-GRAYSON-JERSEY in Andalucía. Sevilla are now subsidising their fans for the second leg. They have reported United to Uefa for the price increase and for not making 5% of Old Trafford available for away fans. It is an unedifying tit-for-tat that fails to address the issue and exposes Uefa’s weaknesses in combating inflated prices.
Sevilla and Porto may be on suspect ground morally but have not breached Uefa rules. The latter are charging Liverpool fans €75 for tickets Authentic Keenan Robinson Jersey to a game Porto club members will attend for €25. Porto’s loophole is that general admission tickets for home supporters are €75. “It is not apparent that there will be any home general admission tickets sold at €75 due to the anticipated demand by FC Porto members,” read a Liverpool statement on Tuesday. “Liverpool FC has therefore raised this significant discrepancy at the highest level with Uefa and FC Porto, who have confirmed that this pricing structure and policy is in line with previous rounds in the competition.” Leicester fans paid £34.50 at Estádio do Dragão in December 2016. wholesale nba jerseysbasketball jerseysdiscount jerseyswholesale jerseys allwholesale jerseys all

As a former Arsenal player Alexis Sánchez is Womens Duane Kuiper Jersey likely to be booed when he steps out for Manchester United against Tottenham at Wembley on Wednesday evening but José Mourinho is confident his new signing can cope with any rough reception he might receive in England.
“The story has gone round that he is on one of the top salaries in the Premier League so he is going to get a little bit of attention wherever he goes,” the United manager said. “I don’t think he cares, though. I think he’s http://www.canucksteamproshop.com/Trevor_Linden_Jersey used to it. I don’t think it is easy for him when Chile play in Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay but that is what he has grown up with. He’s an experienced professional. Crowd reaction isn’t going to be a problem for him.”
The sort of money Manchester United are paying him means Sánchez can expect to be selected for most games, especially those against top-four rivals, though Matt Forte Youth jersey Mourinho does not believe his presence will be detrimental to Marcus Rashford’s time on the pitch and long-term development. Jamie Redknapp has suggested the 20-year-old striker might have to go somewhere else to get the games necessary to further his career, yet Mourinho says he can and will progress at Old Trafford.
“Marcus’s story is quite interesting because he started playing under Mr Van Gaal when the team was in trouble and short of options,” Mourinho Brandon Sutter Jersey said. “Then the monster that kills the little kids arrived and everyone said he would not appear in the first team. In fact he has played every game since then, either starting or coming from the bench. He has played as a striker, as a left winger and a right winger and he has gone to the national team.
“The kid is having a hell of an experience at every level. An amazing future awaits him and being surrounded by top players http://www.philadelphiaeaglesauthen...c.com/Authentic-Jake-Elliott-Jersey can only help him. The whole story of Marcus not getting minutes and matches is really tired http://www.authenticfloridapanthers...m/authentic-henrik-borgstrom-jersey because he’s a very important player for us.”
Mourinho is now happy with his forward line. He will probably look to strengthen midfield in the summer with Michael Carrick retiring and Marouane Fellaini coming to terms with life as a squad player, but he sees no need to bring in new attacking players nor can he imagine where he might look for reinforcements.
“I think in attack it is now difficult for us to improve,” he said. “Where are we going to get a better combination of players than we have? We cannot buy Messi, we cannot buy Cristiano Ronaldo – these are the best players of the last decade. Other than those two where can we get better players than Mata, Martial, Lingard, Rashford, Alexis and Lukaku? In that department we have an amazing group of players.”
Juan Mata is the oldest of that half-dozen, by a few months from Sánchez, and was not expected to last long under Mourinho because the same manager moved him out of Chelsea four years ago. In fact the 29-year-old has just signed a new contract extension at United, giving his manager another excuse to point out that the reputation that precedes him does not always stand up to scrutiny. “The big story when I arrived one and half years ago was that Mata was in trouble, in trouble, in trouble,” Mourinho said. “Now he’s getting an extension of one more year. He is an important player. Important Rodger Saffold Jersey for me, for the club and to all the other players.” cheap nba jerseysnike nfl jerseys size chartcheap jerseys chinacheap jerseys elitebaseball jerseysnew nike nfl jerseysnfl jerseys paypal

Bom dia.” It was only two words and it was not exactly poetry, but Carlos Henderson Authentic Jersey it was enough. Andreas Pereira was being shown around Carrington by Manchester United’s chief recruitment officer, Geoff Watson, with his dad when Sir Alex Ferguson Jon Ryan Jersey appeared, which was probably always part of the plan, just as greeting him in Portuguese probably was too. A forward for PSV Eindhoven, the Brazilian had arrived as the outstanding player at the Nike Cup, a kind of youth world championship, but the people he passed had no idea who he was and he was not sure what he wanted to do next. Until, he says, the person he passed was the manager. And then his mind was made up.
“Suddenly we met Ferguson,” Pereira recalls. “He said ‘hi’ in Portuguese and that was very http://www.bengalsofficialonlinestore.com/Alex_Erickson_Jersey special to me. I didn’t expect that. I thought: ‘How does he know that?’ It was only a little detail but it made me want to go to United straight away. I wanted to sign immediately and stay there. So, I did stay. And from then I never wanted to go anywhere else.” It was 2011 and Pereira was 15; he is 22 now, and it has not quite worked out like that. Not just yet, anyway. But if he has gone somewhere else, it was because he wanted to – in fact, this summer he had to fight for his loan move to Valencia, arguing his corner in negotiations with José Mourinho – precisely because he believes it is the best way back.
Outstanding at youth and under-21 level, Pereira has played 13 Ivan Rodriguez Authentic Jersey senior games for United. His first was a League Cup defeat against MK Dons in August 2014. He forfeited matches this season for the future, pushing to go on loan. He sought minutes, development, and the decision was not taken lightly. Pereira is intelligent and articulate and the thought that went into it is clear, as is the personality it took.
If the reward is experience, he has had plenty. Last season he suffered relegation on loan at Granada, under Tony Adams, http://www.footballeaglesofficialon...e.com/Nike-Reggie-White-Jersey.html playing the role of footballer and translator too, proficient in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French and Flemish; on Thursday his Valencia team, revived under Marcelino García Toral and third in the league above Real Madrid, face Barcelona in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final at the Camp Nou.
In the hours before the game Mourinho may message him; soon after it his dad will call. He always does. A former footballer, Marcos Pereira played in Belgium for eight different clubs, ending at Lommel United, where Andreas began, and retired a year before his son joined Manchester United.
“He showed me videos, how I had to play. When I was at PSV, I’d get home from training and we’d train there. I’d practise free-kicks and corners. After games he’d say: ‘You have to do this, you have to do that.’ Sometimes I was, like: ‘Ah, just shut up, I don’t want to speak about football.’ But I always listened and he would tell me: ‘No, it’s for your own good.’” The coaching continues now. “He watches the game on telly at home in England and calls: ‘Why did you do that?’
“My dad always tells me what to do and what not to do on the pitch. He always gives me advice. But coming to Spain again was my decision. I wanted to go somewhere and play a regular season and play every game because I think it was important for me. Last year I did it and I felt stronger for it. I felt good. The United staff recognised it and they saw that I came back a better player. And that’s why I made the same decision this year.
“[At first] I was thinking that I want to stay. But as the pre-season went on I had the feeling: ‘I don’t think I’m going to play enough, I’m not going to get a lot of minutes.’ I have to play, I have to continue developing. I knew I would get some http://www.officialpanthersonlinestore.com/Jaromir_Jagr_Jersey game time at United but here I’m playing every week and being important for the team. It was a very difficult decision. I never want to leave United but I want to play as well. In the end it will make me a better player and I will still be a United player.” wholesale jerseys usanba jerseys for salewholesale jerseys paypalcheap jerseys wholesalemlb authentic jerseyscheap jerseys nfl

Antonio Conte has challenged the Chelsea hierarchy to back him publicly and demonstrate they retain faith in his stewardship in an attempt to quash suggestions his job is under threat.
The Italian will go into Monday’s game at Watford with his side 19 points behind the leaders, Manchester City, and in a battle to finish in the top four, as a testing second campaign in charge reaches its final months. There have been tensions behind the scenes over recruitment, concerns Brett Anderson Jersey over the intensity of his training and calls of late from the head coach for the board to show “realism” and “patience”.
Neither have been traits particularly associated with Roman Abramovich’s Chelsea and, although there is a growing acceptance Conte will depart Stamford Bridge in the summer, the head coach has called for a public show of support to demonstrate he retains the board’s backing even in the short term.
“I must be honest, there were these type of rumours and speculation [that he might be sacked] even after the first game of the season when we lost against Burnley,” Conte said. “Maybe I’d like the club to prepare a statement for me, no? To say they trust me in my work and my job.
“But, at the same time, I know this never happened in the past, so why should I hope for something different? But, for sure, I’d like to have a statement of support against this speculation. The challenge is that, in the past, this never happened. So it’s a big challenge [for the board] to change the approach now. But, for sure, I’d be glad.”
Although Abramovich has always remained reluctant to speak in public, Chelsea did issue a 57-word statement offering José Mourinho their “full support” in October 2015 after a fourth defeat of his team’s fledgling title defence. That was an Carl Banks Youth jersey unprecedented move under the oligarch’s ownership but did not instigate an upturn and patience snapped in mid-December.
Conte’s side have competed far more impressively and, had City not sprinted clear at the top, their run of two defeats in 17 Premier League matches might have kept them in contention. They have also reached the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup and remained in the FA Cup and Champions League, all with a squad the head coach had warned was not deep enough to challenge on four fronts.
Yet the campaign has been played out to a backdrop of discord and the depth of the champions’ options has been exposed by injuries, with Ross Barkley, who is understood to have pulled up in training at the end of last week, the eighth player to suffer a hamstring complaint. The England midfielder is being assessed, with the latest problem apparently not associated with the serious injury that left him in rehabilitation at Everton http://www.authenticsabresstore.com/-7-rick-martin-jersey_c-470.html until his move to London.
Chelsea have played 40 games this season – that tally was 28 at this stage last year – and there http://www.officialfootballcardinal...ore.com/Nike-Josh-Bynes-Jersey.html had been concerns Conte has not eased the intensity of training. He has dismissed that notion. “If you compare to the other clubs, we have fewer injuries,” he said. “The only problem is that, this season, we are playing a lot more and our squad wasn’t big enough to give them the right rest. We are working less [in training] than last season. A lot less.
“For sure, you have to change your plan, your work. When you play every three days, it’s impossible to give intensity in these two days between one game and another. Sometimes, when I have had the possibility, I have tried to do a little window of work for the players I had decided to rest [after a game]. But in this country, with four competitions and with the intensity of every game, you have to face a season with a big squad. This is very, very important. It’s very important to try to understand and find the best solution.”

There were times over the past three years when Matty Fryatt felt “like a car on the driveway, rusting away”. He talks about being “lost and forgotten” at Nottingham Forest, where he battled to overcome an achilles injury that led to three operations and plenty of soul&#8209;searching as he kept asking himself when he would ever get the chance to return to the pitch. The answer, Fryatt decided this week, is never.
After travelling all over Europe in search of a cure, undergoing Womens Ryan White Jersey surgery that he regrets, fighting back tears on the training ground and feeling embarrassed that he was simply unable to run, Fryatt has come to the conclusion that enough is enough and used this interview to announce his retirement from professional football at the age of 31.
“It’s closure really,” the former Walsall, Leicester, Hull and Forest striker says. “There’s been a cloud over me. And that feeling of: ‘Will I ever get back?’ The longer it has gone on, being a realist, it’s probably like, you’re not going to be back to where you should be, to go to a club and say: ‘Yeah, I’m here, I can offer you this.’ I would be going into a club and faking it as such. And after what I’ve been through, I wouldn’t want to do that to anyone. I’m too honest to do that.”
Fryatt has not played since March 2015, when the pain in his achilles was so unbearable he was “just like a statue” – and that passage of time means he has had long enough to come to terms with the fact he will never experience the adrenaline rush of scoring in front of tens of thousands of people again.
Yet the frustration – and that is the word Fryatt uses over and again – is no one ever got to the bottom of what was wrong with his achilles and how something that seemed so minor, when he felt a “niggle” during a Championship game against Birmingham City in November 2014, ended up bringing a premature end to a career in which he scored 135 goals across the four divisions and appeared in an FA Cup final.
“From scans they would say I had a blow to the area. But I cannot remember anything [like that],” Fryatt says. “From the March period to May in that [2014-15] season I rested and did nothing, and then went to run again and it was Dante Fowler Jr Youth jersey worse. I was coming in off the training pitch nearly crying, hobbling around in absolute agony. I could not run. It was embarrassing. I then went from operation to operation. The first procedure I had was minor. The next was major, so it was taking away the achilles, going underneath it, smashing a whole load of bone Ryan Kesler Jersey out to ease that area, then reattaching the achilles – and I don’t even know if that was the answer.
“I’ve seen http://www.officialbengalsfootballp...ENS_YOUTH_CARLOS_DUNLAP_JERSEY.html the stuff on [Santi] Cazorla at the minute – his achilles is like mine without the skin graft. I don’t know the guy but he’s had X amount of operations in an area where there is the least blood flow, so the healing process is terrible. I wish him well but I’m looking at that thinking it’s not good for him because of the area. With me, in hindsight, I wouldn’t have done any of the operations.”
Fryatt joined Forest in June 2014, a month after playing for Hull in their 3-2 FA Cup final defeat by Arsenal, but started only 17 matches in three years and describes his time at the club as “a complete disaster”. It is a measure of how long he was out injured, and how chaotic life at the City Ground was at the time, that one manager, Philippe Montanier, arrived and departed without Fryatt meeting him. Although that was partly because Fryatt was spending so much time doing rehabilitation work at St George’s Park, he still finds it curious there was “no one above [the manager] or in other departments saying: ‘Where’s this guy?’”
Fryatt says: “They paid my wages and for most of the operations apart from a procedure at the end, which I sorted myself separately, so I can’t grumble at that. But nobody was accountable for things. If I was at another club, people would have been wondering what was going on with http://www.officialnflstoreco.com/d...-perryman-jersey-c-1_1015_1913.html me. At Forest it was like I was a car on the driveway, rusting away and they thought: ‘Just leave it, we’ll get a new car.’ I’d get further down the line and nobody would ask: ‘What’s happening with this rusting car? Are we going to get him in to service and back on the road?’ I just got lost and forgotten a bit.” cheap jerseys elitenew nike nfl jerseyscheap jerseys from chinawholesale jerseys cheapbaseball jerseys cheap

Antonio Conte has admitted serious concerns over when Álvaro Morata will be fit to return from a troublesome back injury and cast doubt over the Spaniard’s involvement in Chelsea’s Champions League ties against Barcelona.
The club record signing, who cost an initial £58m from Real Madrid last summer and has scored 10 goals in 20 Premier League appearances, first complained of discomfort more than three weeks ago and has not featured since being sent off in extra time in the FA Cup third-round replay against Norwich in mid-January. Chelsea’s medical staff continue to explore different ways to treat the pain but Morata has failed to respond to the treatment.
Conte is likely to give Olivier Giroud a first start since an £18m move from Arsenal in Monday’s game against West Bromwich Albion, when Chelsea hope to recover some poise after successive three-goal defeats by Bournemouth and Watford.
“We have been talking a lot about bad results but sometimes we forget we are facing a serious situation,” said the head coach. “Players like Morata, for us, are very important and have been missing for a long period of time. I don’t know how long he will be out.
“We are struggling a lot to find a solution to solve the pain in his back. If you ask me whether he needs a day, a month or the rest of the season, I don’t know. For this reason, I’m a bit worried. You know very well the importance of the player.”
Chelsea host Barça at Stamford Bridge on 20 February and are due to travel to Manchester City and Manchester United before the return at the Camp Nou in mid-March. They are in effect preparing for life without the 25-year-old in those fixtures.
Conte, who has overseen two wins in 10 matches this year, has http://www.authenticpredatorstore.c...-92-ryan-johansen-jersey_c-459.html reaffirmed his commitment to Chelsea as he seeks to inspire a revival, with the club just as reluctant to instigate a change in the dugout mid-season. “I’m not thinking for one moment about the possibility of going away from this Kris Dunn Youth jersey club,” he said. “I repeat: my commitment, like the commitment of my players, is totally for this club.
“But, as you know very well because we are talking about football, a lot of times – and I don’t agree with this – [the future of] the manager and the coach depends on the results. In this case, we are having poor results. For this reason, we have to pay great attention.”
The Italian granted his squad three days off in the wake of Monday’s humiliating 4-1 http://www.vikingsauthenticofficial...om/WOMENS-BRIAN-ROBISON-JERSEY.html defeat at Watford but welcomed the players back on Friday with a warning that the time had come “to be men, not http://www.officialwashingtoncapita....com/Adidas-Evgeny-Kuznetsov-Jersey kids”.

After Manchester City, Liverpool and Tottenham could only manage draws at the weekend, there is a new form team in the Premier League. It’s not Manchester United – who recorded a fourth win in five – but Bournemouth, who have now picked up more points over their last six matches (14) than any other side in the division.
Bournemouth were in the relegation zone at Christmas – with just 15 points from their first 19 games – but they are now up to ninth in the league after a seven-game unbeaten run, their longest since they were promoted in 2015. They are two points closer to seventh place – which could give them European football for the first time in their history – than 18th, where they sat on Christmas Day.
It has been a remarkable turnaround. Their victories over Arsenal and Chelsea in recent weeks have rightly been highlighted, but their newfound ability to avoid defeat against clubs lower down the table has been equally impressive. They have not been beaten by a team currently in the bottom half of the table since they lost to Watford in August. With five of their next seven league games against sides battling the drop, there is a real chance their march up the table could continue.
Eddie Howe seems to have added some street smarts to his passing principles this season. Bournemouth’s averages for possession (48%), pass accuracy (77.1%) and shots per game (11.7) all rank among the top 10 in the league but those numbers are all lower than they were in their first two campaigns in the Premier League. Their improvement this season has come from being better when out of possession. They are more organised and reserved in their defensive play. They are in less of a hurry to win the ball back and are making better decisions as a result. Their average of 13.2 tackles per game is way down on their debut season in the league (18.6) and also the lowest of all 20 teams in the league this season.
Bournemouth conceded 67 goals in each of their first two http://www.officialavalancheauthentic.com/Erik_Johnson_Jersey seasons in the Premier League (1.76 per game), but have cut that down to 37 so far this time around – just 1.42 per match. Bringing in Asmir Begovic and Nathan Ake has helped, but the entire team has a better structure when they don’t have the ball.
Howe has been touted as a future England manager and he has stuck to homegrown players in the transfer window. Ten of his 13 most used players this season were born in England and the three outliers – Begovic, Ake and Josh King – have all played in the country since they were teenagers. Their rise up the table has been inspired by the performances of two young Englishmen, Lewis Cook and Jordon Ibe, who are both excelling this season after frustrating debut campaigns on the south coast.
Ibe struggled to live up to his £15m price tag – a club record fee at the time – when he arrived from Liverpool at the start of last season but he is just 22 and is now starting to have a real influence on the team. Bournemouth had lost their first four games of the season when he turned in a match-winning performance from the bench Authentic La'el Collins Jersey against Chris Hogan Authentic Jersey Brighton in September, setting up two goals. His intervention handed Bournemouth their first points of the campaign, gave him some confidence and proved to Howe that he has an important role to play. The winger now has six assists for the season, which is not just the most in the squad this season but the highest produced by a Bournemouth player in their three seasons in the Premier League.
Cook, who celebrated his 21st birthday on Saturday with a victory over Stoke City, was considered something of a coup for the club when he arrived from Leeds in the summer of 2016. Fans have wanted to see more of him – especially after he captained England to glory at the Under-20 World Cup last summer – and he has been given a run in the team this season. The youngster has added bite and energy to the midfield, leading the team for tackles this season (2.1) but also pushing the team forwards, with 1.6 dribbles per game – a figure only King can better.
Bournemouth have won 1.5 points per game when he has started and just 0.8 per game when he has been left out. Only three of their 11 defeats in the league have come in the 14 matches Cook has started. Ibe has had an even bigger impact on results; the team has earned almost a point http://www.officialcanadahockey.com/5-DAN-HAMHUIS-OLYMPIC-JERSEY.html per game more with him in the team (1.56) and scored almost a goal per game more too (1.5 up from 0.6). cheap nhl jerseyscheap nfl jerseys chinahockey jerseysnba jerseys wholesale

When she is asked why the federation’s relationship with Soccer United Marketing (SUM) – a for-profit company owned by Major League Soccer that includes MLS commissioner Don Garber as its CEO and Solo’s rival candidate Kathy Carter as its president – is the subject of debate within football circles the World Cup winner is quick to pounce.
“We have to get to the bottom of it,” Solo tells the Guardian in a rare interview from her home in North Carolina. “I have my own opinions about it ... I http://www.officialphiladelphiaflyers.com/Adidas-Dale-Weise-Jersey think it has to do with money.”

While the soccer chatterati in at least 32 other countries is discussing the upcoming World Cup, the talk in the US is about a vote this Saturday to elect a new president of US soccer’s governing body. Normally, most people couldn’t care less. But the US men’s failure to qualify for Russia triggered a blame game http://www.footballbengalsofficials....com/Nike-Randy-Bullock-Jersey.html and an election campaign that outgoing president Sunil Gulati has described on more than one occasion as “disgusting”.
Last October’s defeat against Trinidad and Tobago is no longer about an Omar Gonzalez own goal. It’s about youth development, the Latino community, top-down governance, the possible demise of MLS side Columbus Crew, and the role of SUM.
SUM is a marketing, media, and sponsorship Womens Travis Benjamin Jersey company created by the owners of MLS in 2002. As crazy http://www.49ersofficialauthenticsh...7-eli-harold-super-bowl-jersey.html as it sounds Dave Keon Authentic Jersey now, back then no US media company was interested in acquiring broadcast rights to that year’s World Cup (or for the 2006 tournament). SUM stepped up and years later is a major commercial partner of US Soccer, among others. Garber says the company will have injected $300m into the USSF, between 2002 and 2022, when its current agreement expires.
SUM is a cash cow for soccer in the US. Here’s where it gets tricky. The company’s board members are MLS owners. Its offices are within MLS offices. Its online presence is one page on the MLS website with email addresses on how Ondrej Pavelec Jersey to advertise or partner with “passionate sports fans” and “the #1 soccer network in North America”.
Solo knows all that. She knows a lot about money in US Soccer. She is an advocate for payment parity between the men’s and women’s national teams and is among a group http://www.shopcanadahockeyjersey.c.../authentic+duncan+keith+jersey.html of players that filed a wage discrimination complaint against the federation. She says her interest in SUM was piqued over the use of her image in a sponsored promotional video for which she didn’t receive payment.
“I didn’t see a dime of it,” Solo claims. “I started to ask questions and told them I didn’t approve the video to go public before the [2016] Olympics. I started to get emails back that were complete attorney jargon basically saying ‘Hope, this is above your pay grade’. Basically, shut your mouth and play soccer. That is when I knew I was barking up a tree they didn’t want me to bark up. Pretty soon after that is when [USSF] Eric Kendricks Womens Jersey fired me for – quote unquote – saying the word ‘coward’.”
Solo is one of eight candidates vying for the USSF top job, an unpaid position. The new president will be elected by stakeholders that include a mish-mash of state federations, representatives of professional and amateur players, and even fans. In a process so complicated, some candidates say they aren’t yet sure who all the voting delegates actually are.
Gulati, unopposed for 12 years, declined to run in 2018. In a heated campaign, the field is roughly divided into two camps: those representing a status quo and those calling for change. Any type of change. Wait. Where have we heard this story before?
